A unique view on life from the intrepid duo behind a shipping agent business in Stornoway, the Western Isles' main port.
Tha an gn矛omhachas luingeis aig Tormod agus Alasdair MacArtair st猫idhte ann an Ste貌rnabhagh, pr矛omh port nan Eilean Siar. Latha no oidhche, fliuch no fuar, bidh iad a' tabhann nan seirbheisean aca dha soitheach sam bith a tha a' tadhal air Ste貌rnabhagh. Le faisg air d脿 fhichead bliadhna bho th貌isich Tormod a' chi霉ird, tha e fh猫in agus Alasdair gl猫 e貌lach air an obair seo agus tha e ag r脿dh gu bheil iad a' tairgsinn seirbheis 'first-class'!
Deiseil agus de貌nach airson feumalachdan sam bith a thig bho shoithichean a tha a' tadhal air a' phort, cuiridh an dithis dh脿n seo an l脿mhan ri rud sam bith. Bho ghlainne-mheudachaidh agus aodach 霉r dhan chriutha gu bhith a' cur air d貌igh seirbheisean meidigeach do luchd siubhail ann an 猫iginn, chan eil iarrtas sam bith ro mh貌r airson an dithis seo.
Le soithichean-cr霉sa a' tighinn bho air feadh an t-saoghail le na m矛ltean de luchd-siubhail, soithichean si霉il agus b脿taichean iasgaich uile a' cur feum orra - tha e coltach gum bi samhradh air leth trang aig Tormod agus Alasdair. Ciamar a th猫id dhaibh?
Norman and Alastair MacArthur are the two shipping agents based in Stornoway, the Western Isles' primary port. They offer a comprehensive range of services for vessels of all sizes, and are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. With almost 40 years of experience to draw on they claim to offer a 'first-class professional service'!
From magnifying glasses and boiler suits for the ship's crew to organising medevac and repatriation services for its passengers: no job is too large, no distance too great for Stornoway Shipping Services.
With cruise ships bringing passengers by their thousands, yachts and fishing boats all in need of their service it looks like Norman and Alastair are in for a busy summer. How will they get on?
